Wildcat - does anyone else do this?

[hawkeye69]

One thing that the WC does not have is the ability to single load. Using my Bantam while at the bench I can single load and I find it very convenient not to have to remove and refill the magazine every 10 shots.
With the WC mag, after the fourth shot you can keep loading a pellet into the mag without removing it, so it's somewhat like a single load capability and saves removing /refilling the mag every 8 shots..,

Yes I do, mostly for hunting. and the Edgun it can also be done. I think someone won a speed silhouette with a WC loading the mag like this.

I rarely remove my magazine. Quick and efficient way to load your Wildcat

Yup. Also do it with my cricket. Similar mag design. Once it reaches the 3 and 9 o'clock positions, I slip one in.

Yep, same for me.. But what is this 10 shot mag you speak of? If I have to complain about anything on the new WC is that even the 177 is 8 shots. Really? Come on. They could cut a slot in the cheek rest area and get a 16 shot in there. Or at least 10.
But other than that, yeah that is what I do. I just take 4 shots, then I know the first hole is showing. The one more, put in 2 pellets, take 2 shots, repeat.

btw, my 177 WC shoots JSB 10's at 955. And the picture below is what happens when I shoot a JSB 8 gr pellet. Needless to say, it needs heavier pellets
